Voting

At the conclusion of the post-debate "Hardball" show, Chris Matthews went into the crowd at ASU (where I was supposed to be, but that's another story) and told people that they just have to get out and vote. He added that he has the best job in the world right now, and he is sorry to see the debates ending. I just don't get why people don't vote, even if it is just for one race.
At my election day training class today, we learned that some people vote a blank ballot in protest of not liking any a candidates. So, the machine will spit out the blank ballot as an undervoted ballot, and the election official has to make sure that they meant to leave it blank before sending it through the machine again. If the person is going to make so much effort to go and vote, at least you would figure they would put in a write-in candidate.
So vote, by mail, in person, whatever, just do it...it is the only way to express your opinion and make change, unless, of course, the Republicans in your area can figure out a way to make a non-Republican vote not count.
